İSLÂMİYET’İN YAYILMASINDA HİCRETİN ÖNEMİ: HABEŞİSTAN HİCRETLERİ ÖRNEĞİ
THE IMPORTANCE OF HIJRA IN THE SPREAD OF ISLAM

Summary/Abstract: Migrations to the Ethiopia which had been before the Muhammad’s migration to the Medina laid out to the separation of Islam in the nearby the Arabic Peninsula, although their migration had been to get the al-aman (protection themselves). Refugees to the Ethiopia, first of all, granted the religious and spiritual freedom in the country, which governed by Christians. Since the historical epoch that the Maccanian polytheist tried to have the emigrants return back, Ethiopian Christians were interested in Islam. They also sent to Medina an assembly. Subsequently they try to recognize Islam closely. These efforts raised some considerable results though Ethiopian Church’s oppressions. At first Ashame, Ethiopian king and some high officials in the court embraced Islam. Additionally, after embracing Islam, some assemblies came to Medina. All these development show us that refugees contributed to the separation of Islam in a Christian country, besides of Arabian Peninsula.
